Welcome to your first programming assignment for this week!
You will build a Neural Machine Translation (NMT) model to translate human readable dates (“25th of June, 2009”) into machine readable dates (“2009-06-25”). You will do this using an attention model, one of the most sophisticated sequence to sequence models.
This notebook was produced together with NVIDIA’s Deep Learning Institute.
Let’s load all the packages you will need for this assignment.
from keras.layers import Bidirectional, Concatenate, Permute, Dot, Input, LSTM, Multiply

Using TensorFlow backend.
The model you will build here could be used to translate from one language to another, such as translating from English to Hindi. However, language translation requires massive datasets and usually takes days of training on GPUs. To give you a place to experiment with these models even without using massive datasets, we will instead use a simpler “date translation” task.
The network will input a date written in a variety of possible formats (e.g. “the 29th of August 1958”, “03/30/1968”, “24 JUNE 1987”) and translate them into standardized, machine readable dates (e.g. “1958-08-29”, “1968-03-30”, “1987-06-24”). We will have the network learn to output dates in the common machine-readable format YYYY-MM-DD.
We will train the model on a dataset of 10000 human readable dates and their equivalent, standardized, machine readable dates. Let’s run the following cells to load the dataset and print some examples.
m = 10000
dataset, human_vocab, machine_vocab, inv_machine_vocab = load_dataset(m)
100%|██████████| 10000/10000 [00:01<00:00, 8604.32it/s]

('4/28/90', '1990-04-28'),
('thursday january 26 1995', '1995-01-26'),
('monday march 7 1983', '1983-03-07'),
('sunday may 22 1988', '1988-05-22'),

('1 jan 1981', '1981-01-01'),
('monday may 22 1995', '1995-05-22')]
You’ve loaded:
- dataset
: a list of tuples of (human readable date, machine readable date)
- human_vocab
: a python dictionary mapping all characters used in the human readable dates to an integer-valued index
- machine_vocab
: a python dictionary mapping all characters used in machine readable dates to an integer-valued index. These indices are not necessarily consistent with human_vocab
.
- inv_machine_vocab
: the inverse dictionary of machine_vocab
, mapping from indices back to characters.
Let’s preprocess the data and map the raw text data into the index values. We will also use Tx=30 (which we assume is the maximum length of the human readable date; if we get a longer input, we would have to truncate it) and Ty=10 (since “YYYY-MM-DD” is 10 characters long).
Tx = 30
Ty = 10
X, Y, Xoh, Yoh = preprocess_data(dataset, human_vocab, machine_vocab, Tx, Ty)
print("X.shape:", X.shape)
print("Y.shape:", Y.shape)
print("Xoh.shape:", Xoh.shape)
print("Yoh.shape:", Yoh.shape)
X.shape: (10000, 30)
Y.shape: (10000, 10)
Xoh.shape: (10000, 30, 37)
Yoh.shape: (10000, 10, 11)
You now have:
- X
: a processed version of the human readable dates in the training set, where each character is replaced by an index mapped to the character via human_vocab
. Each date is further padded to Tx T x values with a special character (< pad >). X.shape = (m, Tx)
- Y
: a processed version of the machine readable dates in the training set, where each character is replaced by the index it is mapped to in machine_vocab
. You should have Y.shape = (m, Ty)
.
- Xoh
: one-hot version of X
, the “1” entry’s index is mapped to the character thanks to human_vocab
. Xoh.shape = (m, Tx, len(human_vocab))
- Yoh
: one-hot version of Y
, the “1” entry’s index is mapped to the character thanks to machine_vocab
. Yoh.shape = (m, Tx, len(machine_vocab))
. Here, len(machine_vocab) = 11
since there are 11 characters (‘-’ as well as 0-9).
Lets also look at some examples of preprocessed training examples. Feel free to play with index
in the cell below to navigate the dataset and see how source/target dates are preprocessed.

If you had to translate a book’s paragraph from French to English, you would not read the whole paragraph, then close the book and translate. Even during the translation process, you would read/re-read and focus on the parts of the French paragraph corresponding to the parts of the English you are writing down.
The attention mechanism tells a Neural Machine Translation model where it should pay attention to at any step.
In this part, you will implement the attention mechanism presented in the lecture videos. Here is a figure to remind you how the model works. The diagram on the left shows the attention model. The diagram on the right shows what one “Attention” step does to calculate the attention variables α⟨t,t′⟩ α ⟨ t , t ′ ⟩ , which are used to compute the context variable context⟨t⟩ c o n t e x t ⟨ t ⟩ for each timestep in the output ( t=1,…,Ty t = 1 , … , T y ).

Here are some properties of the model that you may notice:
There are two separate LSTMs in this model (see diagram on the left). Because the one at the bottom of the picture is a Bi-directional LSTM and comes before the attention mechanism, we will call it pre-attention Bi-LSTM. The LSTM at the top of the diagram comes after the attention mechanism, so we will call it the post-attention LSTM. The pre-attention Bi-LSTM goes through Tx T x time steps; the post-attention LSTM goes through Ty T y time steps.
The post-attention LSTM passes s⟨t⟩,c⟨t⟩ s ⟨ t ⟩ , c ⟨ t ⟩ from one time step to the next. In the lecture videos, we were using only a basic RNN for the post-activation sequence model, so the state captured by the RNN output activations s⟨t⟩ s ⟨ t ⟩ . But since we are using an LSTM here, the LSTM has both the output activation s⟨t⟩ s ⟨ t ⟩ and the hidden cell state c⟨t⟩ c ⟨ t ⟩ . However, unlike previous text generation examples (such as Dinosaurus in week 1), in this model the post-activation LSTM at time t t does will not take the specific generated y⟨t−1⟩ y ⟨ t − 1 ⟩ as input; it only takes s⟨t⟩ s ⟨ t ⟩ and c⟨t⟩ c ⟨ t ⟩ as input. We have designed the model this way, because (unlike language generation where adjacent characters are highly correlated) there isn’t as strong a dependency between the previous character and the next character in a YYYY-MM-DD date.
We use a⟨t⟩=[a→⟨t⟩;a←⟨t⟩] a ⟨ t ⟩ = [ a → ⟨ t ⟩ ; a ← ⟨ t ⟩ ] to represent the concatenation of the activations of both the forward-direction and backward-directions of the pre-attention Bi-LSTM.
The diagram on the right uses a RepeatVector
node to copy s⟨t−1⟩ s ⟨ t − 1 ⟩ ’s value Tx T x times, and then Concatenation
to concatenate s⟨t−1⟩ s ⟨ t − 1 ⟩ and a⟨t⟩ a ⟨ t ⟩ to compute e⟨t,t′ e ⟨ t , t ′ , which is then passed through a softmax to compute α⟨t,t′⟩ α ⟨ t , t ′ ⟩ . We’ll explain how to use RepeatVector
and Concatenation
in Keras below.
Lets implement this model. You will start by implementing two functions: one_step_attention()
and model()
.
1) one_step_attention()
: At step t t , given all the hidden states of the Bi-LSTM ( [a<1>,a<2>,...,a<Tx>] [ a < 1 > , a < 2 > , . . . , a < T x > ] ) and the previous hidden state of the second LSTM ( s<t−1> s < t − 1 > ), one_step_attention()
will compute the attention weights ( [α<t,1>,α<t,2>,...,α<t,Tx>] [ α < t , 1 > , α < t , 2 > , . . . , α < t , T x > ] ) and output the context vector (see Figure 1 (right) for details):
Note that we are denoting the attention in this notebook context⟨t⟩ c o n t e x t ⟨ t ⟩ . In the lecture videos, the context was denoted c⟨t⟩ c ⟨ t ⟩ , but here we are calling it context⟨t⟩ c o n t e x t ⟨ t ⟩ to avoid confusion with the (post-attention) LSTM’s internal memory cell variable, which is sometimes also denoted c⟨t⟩ c ⟨ t ⟩ .
2) model()
: Implements the entire model. It first runs the input through a Bi-LSTM to get back [a<1>,a<2>,...,a<Tx>] [ a < 1 > , a < 2 > , . . . , a < T x > ] . Then, it calls one_step_attention()
Ty T y times (for
loop). At each iteration of this loop, it gives the computed context vector c<t> c < t > to the second LSTM, and runs the output of the LSTM through a dense layer with softmax activation to generate a prediction y^<t> y ^ < t > .
Exercise: Implement one_step_attention()
. The function model()
will call the layers in one_step_attention()
Ty T y using a for-loop, and it is important that all Ty T y copies have the same weights. I.e., it should not re-initiaiize the weights every time. In other words, all Ty T y steps should have shared weights. Here’s how you can implement layers with shareable weights in Keras:
1. Define the layer objects (as global variables for examples).
2. Call these objects when propagating the input.
We have defined the layers you need as global variables. Please run the following cells to create them. Please check the Keras documentation to make sure you understand what these layers are: RepeatVector(), Concatenate(), Dense(), Activation(), Dot().
# Defined shared layers as global variables
repeator = RepeatVector(Tx)
concatenator = Concatenate(axis=-1)
densor1 = Dense(10, activation = "tanh")
densor2 = Dense(1, activation = "relu")
activator = Activation(softmax, name='attention_weights') # We are using a custom softmax(axis = 1) loaded in this notebook
dotor = Dot(axes = 1)
Now you can use these layers to implement one_step_attention()
. In order to propagate a Keras tensor object X through one of these layers, use layer(X)
(or layer([X,Y])
if it requires multiple inputs.), e.g. densor(X)
will propagate X through the Dense(1)
layer defined above.
# GRADED FUNCTION: one_step_attention

return context
You will be able to check the expected output of one_step_attention()
after you’ve coded the model()
function.
Exercise: Implement model()
as explained in figure 2 and the text above. Again, we have defined global layers that will share weights to be used in model()
.
n_a = 32
n_s = 64
post_activation_LSTM_cell = LSTM(n_s, return_state = True)
output_layer = Dense(len(machine_vocab), activation=softmax)
Now you can use these layers Ty T y times in a for
loop to generate the outputs, and their parameters will not be reinitialized. You will have to carry out the following steps:
Iterate for t=0,…,Ty−1 t = 0 , … , T y − 1 :
one_step_attention()

As usual, after creating your model in Keras, you need to compile it and define what loss, optimizer and metrics your are want to use. Compile your model using categorical_crossentropy
loss, a custom Adam optimizer (learning rate = 0.005
, β1=0.9 β 1 = 0.9 , β2=0.999 β 2 = 0.999 , decay = 0.01
) and ['accuracy']
metrics:
### START CODE HERE ### (≈2 lines)
opt = model.compile(optimizer=Adam(lr=0.005, beta_1=0.9, beta_2=0.999, decay=0.01),
metrics=['accuracy'],
loss='categorical_crossentropy')
opt
### END CODE HERE ###
The last step is to define all your inputs and outputs to fit the model:
- You already have X of shape (m=10000,Tx=30) ( m = 10000 , T x = 30 ) containing the training examples.
- You need to create s0
and c0
to initialize your post_activation_LSTM_cell
with 0s.
- Given the model()
you coded, you need the “outputs” to be a list of 11 elements of shape (m, T_y). So that: outputs[i][0], ..., outputs[i][Ty]
represent the true labels (characters) corresponding to the ith i t h training example (X[i]
). More generally, outputs[i][j]
is the true label of the jth j t h character in the ith i t h training example.
s0 = np.zeros((m, n_s))
c0 = np.zeros((m, n_s))
outputs = list(Yoh.swapaxes(0,1))
Let’s now fit the model and run it for one epoch.
model.fit([Xoh, s0, c0], outputs, epochs=1, batch_size=100)

While training you can see the loss as well as the accuracy on each of the 10 positions of the output. The table below gives you an example of what the accuracies could be if the batch had 2 examples:
dense_2_acc_8: 0.89
means that you are predicting the 7th character of the output correctly 89% of the time in the current batch of data.
We have run this model for longer, and saved the weights. Run the next cell to load our weights. (By training a model for several minutes, you should be able to obtain a model of similar accuracy, but loading our model will save you time.)
model.load_weights('models/model.h5')
You can now see the results on new examples.
EXAMPLES = ['3 May 1979', '5 April 09', '21th of August 2016', 'Tue 10 Jul 2007', 'Saturday May 9 2018', 'March 3 2001', 'March 3rd 2001', '1 March 2001']
for example in EXAMPLES:
source = string_to_int(example, Tx, human_vocab)
source = np.array(list(map(lambda x: to_categorical(x, num_classes=len(human_vocab)), source))).swapaxes(0,1)
prediction = model.predict([source, s0, c0])
prediction = np.argmax(prediction, axis = -1)
output = [inv_machine_vocab[int(i)] for i in prediction]
print("source:", example)
print("output:", ''.join(output))

You can also change these examples to test with your own examples. The next part will give you a better sense on what the attention mechanism is doing–i.e., what part of the input the network is paying attention to when generating a particular output character.
Since the problem has a fixed output length of 10, it is also possible to carry out this task using 10 different softmax units to generate the 10 characters of the output. But one advantage of the attention model is that each part of the output (say the month) knows it needs to depend only on a small part of the input (the characters in the input giving the month). We can visualize what part of the output is looking at what part of the input.
Consider the task of translating “Saturday 9 May 2018” to “2018-05-09”. If we visualize the computed α⟨t,t′⟩ α ⟨ t , t ′ ⟩ we get this:
Notice how the output ignores the “Saturday” portion of the input. None of the output timesteps are paying much attention to that portion of the input. We see also that 9 has been translated as 09 and May has been correctly translated into 05, with the output paying attention to the parts of the input it needs to to make the translation. The year mostly requires it to pay attention to the input’s “18” in order to generate “2018.”
Lets now visualize the attention values in your network. We’ll propagate an example through the network, then visualize the values of α⟨t,t′⟩ α ⟨ t , t ′ ⟩ .
To figure out where the attention values are located, let’s start by printing a summary of the model .

Navigate through the output of model.summary()
above. You can see that the layer named attention_weights
outputs the alphas
of shape (m, 30, 1) before dot_2
computes the context vector for every time step t=0,…,Ty−1 t = 0 , … , T y − 1 . Lets get the activations from this layer.
The function attention_map()
pulls out the attention values from your model and plots them.
attention_map = plot_attention_map(model, human_vocab, inv_machine_vocab, "Tuesday 09 Oct 1993", num = 7, n_s = 64)
On the generated plot you can observe the values of the attention weights for each character of the predicted output. Examine this plot and check that where the network is paying attention makes sense to you.
In the date translation application, you will observe that most of the time attention helps predict the year, and hasn’t much impact on predicting the day/month.
